A new technique for improving the efficiency of single-phase high-frequency boost converter is proposed. This converter includes an additional low-frequency boost converter which is connected to the main high-frequency switching device in parallel. The additional converter is controlled at lower frequency. Most of the current flows in the low-frequency switch and so, high-frequency switching loss is greatly reduced accordingly Both switching device are controlled by a simple method; each controller consists of a one-shot multivibrator, a comparator and an AND gate. The converter works cooperatively in high efficiency and acts as if it were a conventional high-frequency boost converter with one switching device. The proposed method is verified by simulation. This paper describes the converter configuration and design, and discusses the steady-state performance concerning the switching loss reduction and efficiency improvement.

We have investigated the effects of hole-injection buffer layer in organic light-emitting diodes using poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(stylenesulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS) in a device structure of $ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TPD/Alq_{3}/cathode$. Polymer PEDOT:PSS buffer layer was made by spin casting method. Current-voltage, luminance-voltage characteristics and efficiency of device were measured at room temperature with a variation of cathode materials; Al, LiF/Al, LiAl, and Ca/Al. The device with LiF/Al cathode shows an improvement of external quantum efficiency approximately by a factor of ten compared to that of Al cathode only device. Our observation shows that cathode is important in improving the efficiency of the organic light-emitting diodes.

The effects of an auxiliary address pulse driving scheme, in which an auxiliary short pulse is applied to the address electrode during a sustain-period, were examined under the various image patterns of the 42-inch WVGA ac-PDP. When the auxiliary address pulse driving scheme was applied, the luminance of the red, green and blue cells were measured respectively. And the luminance, luminous efficiency, and current were measured under the full-white pattern of the 42-inch ac-PDP. As a result, the luminance of blue cells was improved approximately by 17 %, whereas the luminous efficiency of the full-white pattern was improved approximately by 34 % without a misfiring discharge in comparison with conventional driving scheme.

The hospital is characterized by it's remarkable labor industry and human resources input by unit. Recently, the administrative personnel are recognized as an important staff to provide a hospital guidance to consumer and also easiness for consumer's visit to hospital. The purpose of this study is to find the organizational effectiveness of the administrative personnel in hospitals. The survey data involved in the study was derived from 229 personnels working in 3 medium and small sized hospitals and 1 university hospital in Inchon area. The major finding are as follows; 1. The organizational efficiency in accordance with the general characteristics of subjects in order of over 31 years of age, university graduates, long-term tenure and high position is higher, whereas, in as much as wage and well trained personnels in are higher, general hospital's organizational efficiency is higher in comparison with those of university hospital. 2. The organizational efficiency in accordance with satisfaction and the psychological motive contributional factors is higher as much as the high satisfactory level in every hospitals in general. 3. The organizational efficiency in accordance with the factors of job characteristics is higher in as much as difficulty of the jobs is lesser, however there was not statically significance. In as much as job standard level is higher and the more job responsibility the higher organizational efficiency. It was obvious that the higher professional expertise as well as the training and application level are improving the organizational efficiency. 4. The organizational efficiency in accordance with the factors of structural characteristics was higher in as much as the intercommunication was smooth and the structural formalization level are higher, however there was not statically significance between the participation level of decision making and the organizational efficiency. 5. In as much as older age, management of organization and the job level are satisfied, the higher structural formalization level, the smooth intercommunication have affected as major influence factors of organizational efficiency. 6. In the university hospitals is satisfied in the management and job level of hospital organization as there are no difficult jobs while the level of hospital's organizational formality is high and the intercommunication is smooth, which are improving the organizational efficiency. In the general hospitals is also satisfied the management and job level of hospital organization and psychological motive contributional factors is higher, it was apparent that the organizational efficiency is higher in as much as the level of job standardization is high and the intercommunication is smooth. As a result of this study, in order for improving the organizational efficiency of administrative personnel in hospitals, the management and job level as well as personal relation are preferably satisfied, whereas formalization of organization, intercommunication and etc. should be satisfied, and, therefore, it is advisable to buildup discriminated organizational management and environment for different division on the basis above factors. Since this study is carried on four hospitals in Inchon area, there is a certain limit to generalize its result to all domestic hospitals, nevertheless the gallop poll was made by developing the questionnaires with reasonability and reliability. Especially. as the study was carried by analyzing the comparison of influence factors' difference of organizational efficiency in accordance with the divisional characteristics of the university and general hospitals.

In this paper, we studied effects on the efficiency, according to thickness of the electron injection layer(EIL) for improving efficiency of Organic Light Emitting Diodes(OLEDs). For the first time, after confirming the optimum thickness of the EIL material $Cs_2CO_3$, we designed OLED devices having a structure of ITO/TPD/$Alq_3/Cs_2CO_3$/Al. And we manufactured devices applying for the optimum thickness of the material in the simulation with thermal evaporating method. And we investigated how the EIL material $Cs_2CO_3$ effects on efficiency of OLEDs in the EIL. As the result, because the EIL material $Cs_2CO_3$ reduces energy potential barrier of the EIL, it facilitated the electron transfer. And, as blocking the hole transfer contributes to an increased recombination, we confirmed that the efficiency of OLEDs increased. And compared to the device without using the EIL material, the device using thickness 1.0 nm of $Cs_2CO_3$ in the EIL shows the excellent efficiency. Therefore, we confirmed that the luminance and the external quantum efficiency increase about 600% and 500% respectively.

Purpose - It is important to figure out the relationship between tourism carbon emissions and tourism economics for a healthy tourism development. Research design, data, and methodology - Data of this study are collected from 27 provinces (cities) of China. Tourist consumption stripping coefficient is used to calculate tourism carbon emissions. SBM-Undesirable model is used to measure the efficiency of tourism economics under the constraint of tourism carbon emissions. Results - The results show that: during the year of 2005-2015, there are obvious differences in totals and intensities of tourism carbon emissions among 27 provinces and cities which can be divided into three areas. There is a high possibility of underestimating the actual efficiency of tourism economics by leaving tourism carbon emissions out of account, and a high inefficiency caused by tourism carbon emissions will lead a low efficiency of tourism economics. Conclusions - The development of tourism should give consideration to both economic and environmental benefits, and reduce the inefficiency caused by tourism carbon emissions to improve efficiency of tourism economics by improving the level of technical efficiency and promoting technological progress.
